Who should be shackled?

The July 15 Auditor column discusses the cases of former Newark Mayor Sharpe James and former Senate President John Lynch.
James was indicted and is fighting the charges. Until the charges are proven, he is presumed innocent and is not yet a prisoner and therefore didn't deserve to be put in leg irons and handcuffs.
Lynch admitted guilt before a trial, and so there was nothing to prove. Being guilty, he is now a prisoner and therefore deserves to be restrained.
